That's a wrap on Autumn Fair 2026

 

Autumn Fair brought buyers and suppliers together for four days of meeting face to face, writing orders on the spot and sorting ranges before peak. The Counter Talks Stage sent retailers away with things they could put to use immediately, from tackling retail crime to putting AI to work, and the Buyers Meet Up brought the community together over a coffee. For the first time, the UK's leading retail show and the UK's leading garden retail show came together on a single ticket. Join us in September 2027, when Autumn Fair and Glee return side by side.

Last day on the floor

Autumn Fair closes at 4pm. If there's a stand you've walked past three times or a supplier you meant to go back to, today's the day. Glee is open on the same ticket too, so there's ground to cover.

  • "The show’s been great. I’ve been looking for local and UK-made products and have found some really good new suppliers today. I’ve already placed two orders and I’m coming back tomorrow to do more. What I also love about Autumn Fair is how it brings people together, you meet other retailers from across the country who are facing the same challenges, looking for ideas and sharing experiences."
